New Lotions - 2007 - TanToday - Helping Salon Owners, One At A Time, Since 2000!

frankieb · 12th September 2007, 03:10 PM

Now that ETS owns DS, CalTan, AG, SB, etc., I wonder how that is going to affect the new lotions this season?

DS discontinued a dozen or so products. I don't know what or how many are discontinued from the other lines.

I've heard a rumor that they are not having a lot of new lotions. Just a rumor, I can't prove it.

Personally, I'd like to see some streamlining. Prior to the latest cuts, DS had about 45 "different" lotions

. Way too many, IMO.

Exactly, that's why I'm really interested in the Devoted creations line.

I'd rather see DS re bottle the Splash line and keep the Mystical collection just the way it is. Merge the best into what sells the best and smells the best.

no reason to have 5 different lines when you can maybe have 2 of each type of lotion mostly for scent differences.

Supre is even worse.

Devoted Creations also has alot of different lotions and they are online also, don't get me wrong it is a great line.

EliteMike · 12th September 2007, 04:58 PM

They have 11 in the DC line, thats not that many.

frankieb · 12th September 2007, 06:21 PM

My Devoted samples are coming in tomorrow. We'll see....

EliteMike · 12th September 2007, 06:48 PM

so far my gf isn't very impressed, she tried purity

enuf · 12th September 2007, 08:56 PM

11 lotions is quite a bit when there really isn't much difference between some of them

Bronzee · 13th September 2007, 05:53 PM

Actually there isn't a lot of difference between to many of the lotion manufactures period. Can't there be a goo that WORKS well, light to go on, not sticky when you get out, decent smell, and not a new formulation every 9 months. Putting DS on a BLue Light special sale.

Is there a difference in the Designer Skin, Caltan, AG, SB, Supre lines?????

Here are your differences.

Accelerator
Bronzers
Tingles

That's it......

Now you can mix.....tingle and bronzers.....tingles without bronzers.....different scents....with silicone emultion....without......with anti aging....without....yadayada...etc..

in the end...there are 3.

How many cars does GM make??? why so many??? what's the difference...they all go from A to B. Why so many car manufacturers......same can be said about that and everything else in the world.

EliteMike · 13th September 2007, 06:51 PM

Add coolants, and hypoalergenic to the list Din

Din · 13th September 2007, 06:56 PM

hypoallergenic is a load.....and i've had many reactions....hypoallergenic for who???? there are different allergies. It doesn't work.

Cooling lotions are an even bigger load of crap...HENCE™ why many don't make them anymore.

EliteMike · 13th September 2007, 07:00 PM

I have a client who just bought believe and she love's it, she said she got chilled by it.

Din · 13th September 2007, 07:32 PM

good for her.....now tell me what did it do for her tan?

EliteMike · 13th September 2007, 08:08 PM

well she claims she gets too hot in beds and breaks out in a rash, so APPARENTLY this helped her.

I'm sure it gave her a better tan than not using a lotion

sedmiller · 14th September 2007, 01:14 AM

I was very bummed out to hear about ETS buying Designer Skin. It looks like Supre is going to pick up a big chunk of my business. I am not too fond of swedish beauty, and australian gold. I had a meeting earlier this year with them about Cal-Tan and from what I could tell they were bringing back old best sellers. NOT what my customers are looking for. They are looking for new and the best. Supre has done spectacular for us this year. I am looking for big things from them. Can't wait to hear in Nashville.

To bad that been DISCONTINUED now too! Believe is one of my favorites because it is an easy sell, smells great, and does a pretty good job on nearly everyone!

thenewsundeck · 16th September 2007, 07:31 AM

Don't sell Supre line here, it is available in all the beauty supply shops, and they sell it below retail, as far as I have seen.

Purity is one of my least faves from DC. Have her try Sacred Tryst, Needing Nirvanca or Vision.

EliteMike · 16th September 2007, 02:55 PM

I let someone else try vision, because she didn't like the scent. I let some else try one of the lotions with silicone and she didn't like the way it felt. she said it felt like she was ex foliating, which she may have been and that caused the issue.

enuf · 16th September 2007, 04:46 PM

Try golden grace I used it by skin felt great and the color you get is really good. Everyone is different. Not all tans are created equal.
